Ring Video Doorbell 2

Major Update

Now, talking about the most significant change in the Ring Video Doorbell 2, it now comes with a rechargeable and removable battery. It is evident to mention that the original Ring video doorbell has a rechargeable battery but it ain’t removable.

So, every time the battery drained, you would have to unmount it and recharge it via the USB cable but that ain’t the case with Ring Video Doorbell 2 now.

This move seems to give more convenience to the end users and looks impressive at first glance. The quick release rechargeable battery pack (lithium-ion battery) certainly leads Ring ahead of its competition.

Likewise, Ring Doorbell Pro, it still has the option to be hard-wired with an 8-24 VAC transformer.

Also, one other noteworthy feature that needs to be mentioned over here is concerning the video quality. The Ring doorbell version 2 has taken a gigantic leap from 720p to 1080p that is bound to give crystal clear video quality.

Other Updates

Ring claims that the infrared night vision has been improved significantly which now boasts a 160-degree field of view and a horizontal motion detection angle of 180-degrees.

Other than that, two swappable faceplates (Venetian Bronze or Satin Nickel in color) are also available to complement your home design and decor.

Also, if you want to see how the cloud recording feature works, for that matter, you get to enjoy the first 30 days for free. Now, that sounds great. Ain’t it?

Ring Video Doorbell 2 has GPS technology and only works with the associated user address. So, in any case, if it gets stolen, it may not be of any use for the person.

Akin to all other doorbells, Lifetime theft protection is also available for this Ring version 2 which means that if in any case, it gets stolen, you will get a replacement for free, No strings attached.

What to expect in near future?

As of now, Ring video doorbells are still not compatible with Apple Homekit but we can expect them to work with it real soon.

Availability

Ring Video Doorbell 2 is now available to purchase at all the major US retailers, Ring Doorbell Official site, Best Buy, Home Depot and Amazon.
